" We are incredibly perfectionistic. We often excel in school,athletics,artistic pursuits. We also tend to quit without warning. Refuse to go to school,drop out,quit jobs,leave lovers,move,lose all our money. We get sick of being impressive. Rather,we tire of having to seem impressive. As a rule,most of us never really believed we were any good in the first place."

Boomboxes and Dictionaries

The Gaslight Anthem

1. Are you male or female?:
Young girls ain't suposed to die on a saturday night.

2. Describe yourself?:
I'm broke and I'm hungry.
I'm hard up and lonely,
I've been dancing on this killing floor for years.

3. How do people feel about you?:
We should remember to slow down more often and maybe we will.
Theres a lotta good things coming our way right now,
A lotta bad has passed but we survived the breakdowns
All is forgiven, water under bridges now.

4. How do you feel about yourself?:
We were the magnificent dreamers,
In secret lamplight hideouts.
We swore the world couldn't break us,

5. Describe your girlfriend/boyfriend?:
And I'll love you forever if I ever love at all
Wild hearts, blue jeans, & white t-shirts

And we sing with our heroes thirty-three rounds per minute
We're never going home util the sun says we're finished

7. Describe where you live?
But here the days will eat you alive,
But I won't give in tonight.
You said it's not worth my time,
And not to regard them.
And not to settle just for peace of mind,
I could wait it out all night.

8. Describe how you live?:
I worried and stalled every night of my life.
Better safe than making the party.
And I never had a good time, I sat by my bedside, with papers and poetry about Estella.
With great expectations, we had the greatest expectations.

9. Describe how you love?:
Because the radio will still play loud,
Songs that we heard as our guards came down.
Like in the summertime when we first met,
I'll never forget, and don't you forget,
These nights are still ours.
I still love the way you smile.

It's got me on my knees in a bathroom,
praying to a god I don't even believe in,
"Dear jesus...are you listening?"
If this is the one chance that really matters,
don't let me fuck this up.
If you had told me about all this when I was fifteen,
I never would have believed it....

6. If you could say one thing to the person you love, what would it be?

You can taste it
Don't look at me that way

And he came wanderin in the night

On the fifteenth floor of a New York skyrise

Wake up the sun is rising without you

let the ghosts sleep, just shut your eyes and burn the past away.

This time of night I could call you up.I'd get angry with athletic ease - break common laws in twos and threes.(if I die clutching your photograph don't call me boring it's just cause I like you.)

Oh take me on back take me on back and take me back...to the place where I could feel your heart. Is this the end or just the start? of something really really beautiful wrapped up and disguised as something really really ugly.

Won't you...
Come by and see me? I'm a love letter away. I'd break your name before I'd say: "I really love you/loved you". Now I don't care if you saw, I watched every inch of film flash across your roman features - and I loved it, loved it.

No I don't care if...
You think I'm eager to shut your eyes. Well I'm sorry everybody knows you can't break me with your gutter prose. (Would you believe it she sent me a letter? The ring it nearly weighs her down. She's got another boy, oh boy.)

Steady your ears, steady your ears and read my lips.Poetry is not a luxury, it's how I break this home. And when I'm really ill won't you cradle me? Man is not a noble animal but maybe woman is.Remember

I heard you...
Inside your room you said " you never really live until your back's against the wall" Oh did you really mean it? No, I never break my gaze, if just to see the scar remain;reflected in your eyes. I think it's time to go home.


Oh tell me your thoughts, tell me your thoughts on liberty. See there's a place where I sink to sleeping. She said "Oh, my vote is as red as my blood" Will you join me for another round? I haven't had the chance to speak yet

God Speed...
I break the law once every week to feel your touch. What's a book to you in bed? Do you feel better? Older? This just makes me ill your name is dripping from my pen. Still, you're not around to curse.I'll drop the gun now




I'm still under you.

+/-

june 28th
+birthdayyyyy
+went shopping and blew money on things for myself
+got to drink spitfire
+fireworks
+pinata full of booze
+got to play dress-up
+had cigarillos
+ate like a champ all day

-no birthday card
-no cake (weirddd)
-no gifts other than money or booze
-some people not coming out to party

all in all it was a sweet day. kinda felt just like any other party but the fireworks and the pinata was what made it for me. so pretty much the best birthday i've had so far and one of the best days in general lately.

i actully felt older on my birthday for once. i feel like i'm twenty now. as scared as i was of it before, i learned more in that one night than i would have imagined. i learned alot about myself and everyone around me. i'll take that for what's it worth.

day one

So, I'm officially twenty years old now. I feel the same and I don't at the same time. Birthdays have always been weird for me. It's been a good day so far though. Went shopping and spent a ridiculous amount of money on myself which I never do unless it's in the form of something alcoholic. One of the purchases is a really cute dress that I'm going to wear tonight. Hopefully my tit won't pop out or anything. Probably my biggest concern so far being twenty, so looks like things are going well. Hopefully tonight ends up being fun. I like knowing that something is planned but not knowing what it is. I also like to think I'm lucky for that. It's not very often that I get surprises and I feel that as I age they'll continue to happen less frequently. At least I have awesome friends though so let the good times come.

Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere

It's all so plain, it's all a plan
It's all so plain to most everyone
The sky doesn't ever end
The air just gets much thinner further up
You could keep digging down and down
A thousand graves down without turning around or finding hell

would you grieve if i chose to leave?
what would you say if i was in pain?

Describe where you currently live:
Now I'm home for less than 24 hours
That's hardly time to take a shower,
Hug my family and take your picture off the wall
Check my email write a song and make a few phone calls
Before it's time to leave again

Your best friend is?
I was always strong as long as we were a team
I crawled into somebody's heart who meant the world to me
love made me strong enough to be alone and set me free
but with my friends, friends to the end, is where I wanna be

Describe how you live:
'cause I like going for hikes and riding bikes
and playing video games in the middle of the night
and I'll stay up late and I wont even care
that we're getting up early to go to the state fair
I'm gonna ride the biggest ride it'll be out of sight
then I'll share an elephant ear with you if you'd like
because we are alive so we've gotta live life
to the fullest you spin the bottle and I'll dim the lights
four five six seven minutes in the closet

Describe how you love:
Gave me a push and he started singing

The sound of our voices made us forget everything
That had ever hurt our feelings

this is just a test take it with love and you will pass

if you do the world will kick your ass

it's been a long time

So I stayed up all night and this is what I've resorted to.
You know the only kind of surveys I can ever finish are the lyrics ones.
I'll probably update this again soon, I'm having trouble sleeping lately.
Anyway, music survey time! (I chose The Knife cause..I wanted to)

1. Your current relationship status:
Wish I could speak in just one sweep
What you are and what you mean to me
Instead I mumble randomly
You stand by and enlighten me

2. Your first love:
you touched my heart
like a knife
that's very sharp
or like a bird
you just set free
that's just like me

3. Do you believe in love at first sight?
I'm in love with your brother, what's his name?

4. Your most recent ex:
Has he mentioned my age, sug,
or is he more into young girls with dyed black hair ?

5. Your Best friend:
Punk rock t-shirt, black cap and tattoo
The first things I noticed about you

6. Sex:
sharing different heart beats in one night

7. Marriage:
Got a home, a dog and a man to call my own

8. Life:
or don't know how, don't know what to say
is it medicine or social skill?
don't have answer and nobody will
do it screaming or without a word
being sane is a full time work

9. Death:
Rumours telling me you are mourning
and you haven't slept for several days

10. Your regrets:
before I knew about the equality way
I wanted to get laid to
Take my breath away

11. High school:
Yes in a dream all my teeth fell out
A cracked smile and a silent shout

12. Your worst enemy:
You could have locked yourself up
For ten years or so
And when you finally came out
There would still be no chances for you

13. Authority:
She was laughing while pressing the keys
She said my favorite book was dirty and
"You should not shout, you can read."

14. Politics:
They said we have a communist in the family

15. Your religious stand views?
To call for hands of above to lean on
wouldn't be good enough for me

16. Monday:
I'm coming over but I won't be long

17. Tuesday:
We learned how to stay fit and things like
Green-tones hide the blush

18. Wednesday:
When we come home, we pull the curtains down
Making sure that the TV is on

19. Thursday:
in the first row on the First Floor Power show

20. Friday:
I wasn't really looking for some more
than some company on the dance floor

21. Saturday:
we aimed for high speed
and for someone who could catch me

22. Sunday:
Here comes another day in isolation

23. Coffee:
I'm the taste on your tongue

24. Tea:
we meet up at our favourite café
I'll order a chai tea
and you will have the usual au lait

25. Alcohol:
Red wine and food for free, a possibility

26. Cigarettes:
Who wants to be ordinary
Who wants to be sweet

27. Lunch meat:
It must be safe when it's on TV

28. Food:
So where's the femininity
The one with skirts and high heels
A shiny sink and home made meals

29. Color:
and we raise our heads for the colour red

30. Anything you'd like to add?
we seek and we will find
reason to stay alive
the price has never been this low
